InuYasha [Inu-Yasha] #15
In "Dueling Emotions," Inuyasha and his companions face a rampaging demon bear, its mind twisted by a Shikon Shard embedded in its skull—only to see it slaughtered by Naraku’s swarm of demon wasps, who snatch the shard before it can be claimed. Meanwhile, Koga’s wolf clan launches a bold assault on a fortified castle, hoping to seize its hidden shards, but find the defenses far stronger than expected. Written by Rumiko Takahashi, Mari Morimoto, and Gerard Jones, with art by Takahashi and inks by both her and Hidemi Sahara, this 2003 issue delivers a tense clash of instinct and strategy, with Takahashi’s dynamic storytelling and expressive character work on full display. The cover, also by Takahashi and Sahara, captures the moment’s urgency with bold lines and vivid contrast.
